Help me decide what to do with my LIFE!

With me, I didn\'t know what I wanted to major in when I graduated high school.  So I went to a junior college and took my general education courses, to get them out of the way.  I don\'t know if Canada has any community colleges, but if you do, then look for some class that\'s like a career exploration.  It\'ll help you narrow down what you can consider as a possible major.  By taking those general ed courses you can take your time to decide what you want to do with life.
THis summer you can conduct some interviews with people who are in some professions that seem to interest you.  Ask them what it\'s like to work in that field and if they think it\'s satisfying.  Of course, the average person changes careers at least an average of 3 times in his/her lifetime.

Well, congratulations on graduating!  And good luck in finding what you want to do with life.

Lots of advice here.  The best I can give you is to do a job you like.  Life is too short and the days are too, to be spending 8 hours a day doing something you don\'t like.

Don\'t worry if you don\'t know immediately what you want to do.  You may have to try something to see if it\'s really what you want.

My advice is don\'t do mechanical engineering, it\'s boring hehe :P
I\'m done with my 2nd year and I\'ve just chosen which direction to take so it might get more interesting starting this fall.

I Kinda agree with what you said but not totaly. Sure do what you like but not something that is fun or realy enjoyable to you because when it becomes your work you will grow to hat it.

I don\'t know about that.  I know several people who do truely enjoy their jobs.

My father is one of them, come to think of it.

Just get a job with high pay, lot\'s of power, low hours, and a minimal amount of work.
